TGIF. No, Really.

TGIF

If you think you’ve had a bad week, just remember – it could have been worse. Check out what happened to these guys (and gals)… 

In Yarmouth, Massachusetts, officers responding to a report of a BMW driving at a high rate of speed around 7:00 a.m. found Sean Dailey, 36, asleep in the driver’s seat… with the engine (still) running… and the transmission in neutral… Sean was reportedly “extremely impaired”… which may explain why he was found here… 

Near Suffolk, Virginia, Maurice Devonte Lee, 26, was apparently hanging out with his boyfriend on a trail in the Great Dismal Swamp Refuge… when he spotted a black bear… running toward them… and so Maurice tried to shoot the aforementioned bear with a 9 mm handgun… at least that was the first story he told police… 

In Cross Roads, Texas, an unnamed Walmart cart attendant was startled – as were the shoppers in the parking lot at that Walmart – when the aforementioned (but unnamed) Walmart cart attendant screamed… after he went to separate a bunch of shopping carts that were in the “return” area… So, what was all the screaming about? Thought you’d never ask… 

In Elk Grove, California, Shawn Viramontes, 37, got into an argument with his roommate… Apparently the roommate thought Shawn was stealing his belongings, and told him he needed to move out… leading Shawn to lock himself in his room… and then make what can fairly be described as an “incendiary” response… 

In Viersen, Germany, an unnamed driver was spared a speeding fine… thanks to what may have been “divine” intervention with one of those annoying speed cameras… check it out

In Homewood, Pennsylvania, police responded to a burglar alarm about 3:30 a.m. at the Homewood Hair and Beauty Supply here… They found glass on the front door shattered… and discovered that a cash register and cigarettes were stolen… but it didn’t take them long to track down Bryan Eleam, 59… You’ll never guess how… 

And finally, in Atlanta, Michigan, Matthew Brown, 34, may well find himself in the Guinness Book of World Records… for effort, if nothing else… See, Matthew went into the local Walmart about 1:30 a.m., stole some electronic items, dragged the items to his car, parked in the store’s lot, loaded them in and drove away… only to return to the same store 20 minutes later… taking still more electronic items, putting them in a shopping cart (to make things easier?)… left without paying, and again loaded the items in his car and drove away (btw, the term “electronic items” doesn’t seem to do justice to Matthew’s efforts, which included three 50-to-65-inch TVs, a drone, an AT&T cellphone, a computer building kit, a flashlight, a Schwinn bicycle, an HP Pavilion Desktop computer, a PS4 racing wheel and a Western Digital 6TB hard drive) … and then guess what Matthew did… 

Have a great  weekend, folks!
